Banks Beer, the beer of Barbados, is a premium pilsner style lager with a smooth, fresh aroma and a medium alcohol content. Banks is brewed from a pure classic blend of 2-Row British and Australian malted barleys deliciously flavored by Yakima Clusters and the noble Styrian Goldings aroma hops. It is however Barbados’ water, naturally filtered through limestone rock, along with our own special strain of yeast, which give Banks Beer its unique Bajan character and distinctive quality. Consistently the #1 choice among beer drinkers in Barbados since it was first produced in 1961.

it pours a light golden color with a white fluffy head. It doesn’t have a strong aroma with a lot of definition although there is grass that is evidence. The taste is okay, crisp, and relatively smooth on the way down.

Bottle 33cl traded with CH-303 thanks ! A clear yellow beer with low head. Nose is on wet paper and corn sugar. Aroma is on wet paper, very very thin, dusty hops, and nothing very very poor, just some vague bitterness at the finish, no aromatic hops.

Refrigerated 11.2 oz. brown bottle best by July 2015 poured into a glass. Aroma is grain, light body, low carbonation, and thin small-bubble lacing. Taste is light malt, some sweetness, and some grain.
